Not working neither with linux- image-3.9.1-030901-generic_3.9.1-030901.201305080210 from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.9.1-saucy/ Hotkeys are detected, showkey -s: Fn+F5: 0xe0 0x4c 0xe0 0xcc Fn+F6: 0xe0 0x54 0xe0 0xd4 I also attach the results from tests described on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Debugging/Backlight. Test with acpi_backlight=vendor: - on 3.8.0-20.31-generic, no change. But echo 8 > /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness makes the screen dark, moreover /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/max_brightness = 2583660 - on 3.9.1, no brightness change but the KDE notification pops up with only 3 levels (0, 53, 100%) Test with video.use_bios_initial_backlight=0: - on 3.8.0-20.31-generic, no change.
